Equivalent & Substitute Parts for SCS240AE2HRC

Part Overview

The SCS240AE2HRC by Rohm Semiconductor is a SiC (Silicon Carbide) Schottky diode array, featuring 1 pair common cathode configuration, a voltage rating of 650 V, and a continuous current rating of 15A (DC) per diode. It is housed in a TO-247-3 through-hole package, qualified for automotive use with AEC-Q101, and is compliant with RoHS and REACH regulations.

This diode is now classified as obsolete. When a product becomes obsolete, it is necessary to identify equivalent or substitute parts to maintain compatibility in existing designs and ensure ongoing procurement. Suitable substitutes must match or exceed the core electrical, mechanical, and compliance parameters.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution is determined strictly by matching the following key parameters:

• Diode Configuration: 1 Pair Common Cathode
• Technology: SiC (Silicon Carbide) Schottky
• Voltage - DC Reverse (Vr) (Max): 650 V
• Current - Average Rectified (Io) (per Diode): equal to or greater than 15A (DC)
• Voltage - Forward (Vf) (Max) @ If: does not exceed provided value at comparable current
• Speed: No Recovery Time > 500mA (Io)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Package / Case: TO-247-3 or equivalent
• Operating Temperature - Junction: ≥175°C
• Qualification: AEC-Q101 (Automotive)
• RoHS and REACH compliance requirements

Only substitute parts matching all strictly defined parameters above are considered equivalent.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Selection of substitute parts for SCS240AE2HRC should be based on the product status (obsolete) and alignment with compliance requirements (RoHS3, REACH). SCS240AE2HRC11 is an active product, matches the critical electrical and mechanical parameters, and meets RoHS3 and REACH compliance, making it suitable for direct substitution where automotive qualification is not a strict requirement.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What core parameters must be reviewed for substituting SCS240AE2HRC?
A1: Review diode configuration, technology, voltage and current ratings, forward voltage at rated current, speed, leakage current, thermal rating, package, mounting type, and compliance attributes.

Q2: Is SCS240AE2HRC11 pin-compatible with SCS240AE2HRC?
A2: Both parts use the TO-247-3 package and through-hole mounting. Pin compatibility is maintained within the specified package.

Q3: Why is the SCS240AE2HRC11 considered an equivalent substitute?
A3: SCS240AE2HRC11 matches or exceeds the electrical ratings, uses the same technology and configuration, and complies with RoHS3 and REACH.

Q4: Is qualification status relevant when substituting?
A4: If automotive qualification (AEC-Q101) is required by the application, explicit verification of the substitute’s qualification status is necessary based on provided data.

Q5: Are there differences in package designations?
A5: SCS240AE2HRC uses the TO-247 supplier device package; SCS240AE2HRC11 specifies TO-247N. Both reference the TO-247-3 case. Check for any mechanical variations if not explicitly listed.
